Started Monday, in our DO , told work to time no OT, so I approached manager today, asked if OT ban was still on, he replied what OT ban! So carried on with work to time , left mail in frame , and took packets , SDs and mail where we were delivering packets to, got told the budget for the office has been halved, how long at this time of the year will that carry on for.

OT reduction/budget cut? started with SISO on monday (although not for the chosen few :arrrghhh ). I used to go the extra mile for the public. Have done for a decade or more. I work a three walk duty (created by the latest revision :funneh ) made up of mainly students with ridiculous amounts of prep and parcels. We've taken out a double walk today of 5 days mail, left one walk in. We would have completed this all week but there is no extended ot allowed. I'm not working after the finish time for nothing (this is ST's future btw!). I'm not giving these bastards a minute of my life again. If it's not sorted by Xmas I'm off in the new year. f**k em :wave

The O/T budget has been halved by 50% from now until the end of the fiscal year (April 5th 2023)
